Dit is correct gebeurd. Het percentage van de mannelijke geboortes in de ziekenhuizen waar men naar onderzoekt is gewijzigd naar 80%.

Dit is inderdaad zo, als je de parameter 'percentage van mannelijke geboortes per dag' wijzigt in 0,8 dan zie je wat de kans is dat meer dan 80 % van al de geboortes mannelijk zijn. Dit heeft de student wel maar 1 keer berekend, als je dit een aantal keer doet, zie je dat deze waarschijnlijkheid bijna niets is.

Deze Oplossing is correct gewijzigd naar 80 %. Je had echter een paar steekproeven meer kunnen doen en daarvan een gemiddelde nemen. Dan zou je merken dat de probabiliteit ligt rond de 0.3-0.2% Jouw 0.8 % is net een uitschieter.

Het percentage is juist gewijzigd van 60% naar 80%. Verder is het ook noodzakelijk om een periode van 3650 dagen te nemen in plaats van 365 dagen. 3650 is veel een langere periode waarder je een stabieler resultaat bekomt. Hoe meer jaren hoe nauwkeuriger het resultaat. Dit geldt ook voor het aantal simulaties.
